2. No cookies

This website is a static site and uses no cookies and no comparable techniques to recognise visitors.

3. Hosting

The website is hosted on a server of Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, in a data centre in Germany. A data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR) is in place. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in a secure and efficient provision of the website (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).

4. Server log files

When the website is accessed, access data is automatically stored in server log files: IP address, date and time, page requested, amount of data transferred, referrer URL and the browser/operating system used. The purpose is technical operation, security and error analysis (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Log data is deleted after a short period.

5. Analytics with Plausible

We use Plausible Analytics, which we self-host on our own server in Germany. Plausible is cookieless, stores no personal data and no full IP addresses, and builds no cross-device profiles. Only aggregated metrics are collected (e.g. page views, referrer, approximate country-level origin, device type). We also record the “book_click” event when a booking link is clicked (noting which platform); no personal data is processed. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in privacy-friendly analytics (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).

6. Maps (Leaflet / CARTO)

On the “Getting here” and “Surroundings” pages we show an interactive map. The map tiles are loaded from CARTO (basemaps.cartocdn.com). This transfers your device’s IP address to the map provider, which is technically necessary to deliver the map to your browser. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in illustrating the location (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Provider: CARTO. Privacy information: carto.com/privacy.

7. External links to booking platforms

Our booking links lead to external platforms (Airbnb, Fewo-direkt, Home2Go). Only when you click do you leave our website; the respective provider’s privacy terms then apply. We append campaign parameters (UTM) to the links to evaluate the origin of booking enquiries; these contain no personal data. The route button on the “Getting here” page is likewise an external link (Google Maps) that opens only when clicked.

8. Your rights

You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and a right to object to processing based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Please use the contact details above.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular the one responsible for us: Die Landesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz und für das Recht auf Akteneinsicht Brandenburg (LDA Brandenburg), Stahnsdorfer Damm 77, 14532 Kleinmachnow.

9. Encryption

This website is delivered exclusively over encrypted HTTPS (TLS).
